Follow whichever method you feel best suits your needs. I’ll give explanations why each would benefit you to help you decide. The first way to convert is through an automated system on a browser (web-based conversion tools). This method is convenient for users who have fast internet access and limited hard drive space. Though there are numerous options for browser-based converters, I recommend using \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fpdf2png.com\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PDFtoPNG\u003C\u002Fa>.

For this method, simply load your PDF file into Reader. Under ‘File’, click ‘Save as’. Next, simply choose ‘PNG’ from the file type menu, name the new file and choose its location.

First, open your PDF in Preview. Select ‘Export’ from the file menu. Once again, select ‘PNG’ as the type of file you wish to save it as. This is a simple method and one I highly recommend, as it lets users make this conversion without third-party software tools.

In fact, they’re not even the same file type (PDF is a document, PNG is an image). However, sometimes a PDF will have media within itself that you’ll want to use outside the document format. For example, if a PDF has an image file on one of its pages, you can convert to a PNG to use this image file extensively.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PNG files are also lossless files, which means that when they’re compressed into a smaller size, they retain all of their resolution. If the time comes when an image needs to be used in ways further than what the PDF is capable of, the PNG offers all the necessary potential for editing and sharing at a high quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The PDF isn’t exactly the most interchangeable extension for PNG files and vice versa but there’s going to come a time when you need to swap one for the other.
